Alternator Bracket
 
Does anybody know of a company that sells a bracket that relocates the alternator to the lower passanger side of the block?

It would be nice if it came polished and if it does not touch the cylinder head at all.
Thanks

Hi Dennis, hope you have great days in this xmas. I was looking the same, tried in the summit page looking for alternator bracket and you will find like 100 parts, or look in ARP products, billet specialites.

I have heard of several guys making brackets to do this, but i'm assuming theyre using at least one bolt in the head.

I'd like to find something like that too. Electric waterpumps are legal next year so I might change things around.

Same reason why I want to do it too. (electric water pump) Plus it looks so much cleaner!!!!

Heres the March setup I have been running. I remember seeing a pump in the catalog (cant remember if it was CSI or Meziere) that had a built in idler. I might try that one.

It's Meziere.... and I have been told that the Meziere has a longer service life then CSI. (It better for $4??.99)
But that is the one I'am getting. I have seen the alternator bracket relocated with the vortech kits. Do you think that would work? Or does it just look messy with out the blower on top of it?

By the way, that was a nice bracket.

I've thought about using the Vortech brackets also, but I think that would be a little much just for an alternator.

I like my March stuff so much, I'm probably gonna leave the alternator where its at and get the pump with the idler.

Andy, I'm sold on your bracket, I will be buying one here shortly now, I just wonder how it will play into the turbo setup when I get it, we'll see I guess.

Yes it does.
